I'm a fully licensed LCSW based in California, and I'm easing back into practice after taking time away for my health. I work best with clients looking for shorter-term, focused support rather than long, open-ended treatment. I know what it's like to face real-life challenges, and I bring genuine warmth and honesty to every session.

Thomas Tophia

Therapist

Virtual • California


My name is Thomas, and I have been working in the field of recovery and addiction for more than 20 years. I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and am also a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with individuals and families facing challenges related to addiction, mental health, relationships, and life transitions.

My primary focus is helping clients regain balance and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. Whether you are struggling with anxiety or depression, navigating family conflict, working toward recovery from addiction, or simply feeling stuck, I believe therapy can provide a safe and supportive space to better understand yourself and develop effective solutions.

I take a collaborative approach to therapy and believe that meaningful change often involves not only the individual, but also the family and support systems around them. Together, we can identify strengths, address challenges, improve communication, and develop practical tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and purpose.

Have you ever heard the saying "the mind is a wonderful servant, but a terrible master?" Many people find themselves caught in patterns of thought that feel automatic and hard to step away from. Rather than trying to eliminate these thoughts, we change how you relate to them. This happens in two main ways. The first is through mindfulness. Not mindfulness as meditation or yoga, but as intentional awareness of your patterns of thinking and feeling. The second is values, meaning what matters most to you and what you want your life to stand for. These values serve as a compass to guide your decisions.

Shannon Powell

Therapist

Virtual • California


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing trauma-informed, holistic care for individuals seeking meaningful change.

I view therapy as a bridge — helping you move from the past to your desired future.

Using evidence-based approaches, I help you uncover and release patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that no longer serve you. Instead of changing these patterns through force, we clear away the distortions to reveal the clarity underneath.

My goal is to walk alongside you on this leg of your healing journey, as you align your mind, body, spirit and actions.
